There was the only one film released in 1977, that has more money (all forms of viewing included), than 'Smokey 1' & that was 'Star Wars'You mention ‘Smokey & The Bandit’, the first is still one my top-10 favourite films, & l saw it at the cinema when it was released
I already knew about Jerry Reed, as a singer/songwriter/fantastic guitarist
Unfortunately, given the insanely huge success of the first film, & quite good takings from ‘Smokey 2’, some idiot decided to write/film/release ‘Smokey 3’, which was actually on TV last night
I'll freely admit, I've never seen any of the 'Star Wars' films, barring the odd clip
